The House of Dies Drear is also good, as is Green Angel, and Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry.

I've read some books but not many, with the exception that they're nonfiction. And because they're nonfiction i don't remember the titles.
However I've been writing, just haven't finished a single story yet. |

Well I'm only 13 so these books are for teens really but i'll put my fave books...
The Hobbit: J.R.R. Tolkein Heretic: Sarah Singelton Century: Sarah Singelton The Magians (Reading the series, this is first book (It was really good)) The Knights of Liofwende trilogy: Spiggots Quest, Malmocs Castle, Boggart and Fen: Garry Kilworth The Wind on Fire trilogy: Wind Singer, Slaves of the Mastery and Wind on Fire: William Nicholson All those are my favirote books... I can't choose my fave book... But my fave writer is probably Sarah Singelton, But it's to hard to tell really |

Yeah i liked the Hobbit... for some reason many of those books were sad
 The Hobbit was sad... The Wind On Fire trilogy was tragic... Century was a bit horific... Heretic showed how the Catholics had to deal with the Tudor times... With the extra fantasy... Fantasy are my faves by far! This post has been edited by Thomaski on Jul 23 2006, 05:36 AM |

Hobbit wasn't very sad, just the ending.

Anybody has read Moby Dick? It's a very nice book. And even you'll find some chapters completely hilarius.

It's not unusual to be loved by anyone. Group: Admin/Black-X Legion Admin Posts: 3,419 Member No.: 103 Joined: 5-February 05 |
It's okay. Basically it's about a guy named Ishmael who goes on a whaling ship that's owned by a one-legged whacko who wants to kill the giant, white title character. Later in the book the whaling ship is destroyed and a new one is built and christened under Satan. Moby Dick ends up killing everyone except for Ismael and one other guy and it sorta ends like the first Jaws movie. There's also a Native American.
